3 questions on inspiration with
Saoirse Egan
We're asking artists to choose one notable person, place and object that has inspired them in their journey so far. We're mapping inspiration at a scale never attempted before
Person
Sophie Calle continuously inspires me. Her work focuses on intimacy, voyeurism and the private sphere, and her publicising these topics brings up some interesting concepts. I try to include this in my practice, whether through considering voyeurism directly or considering solitude and who we are when we are alone.
Place
I often draw inner worlds, living rooms, kitchens or the view into someone's window. The home is the most inspiring place for me
Object
Mundane objects are motifs repeated throughout my work. Coffee cups, wine glasses, and books signify the moment of rest, which I usually try to capture.
